上海电影节｜彩虹合唱团唱响本届颁奖典礼主题曲《电影之城》

在6月25日晚举行的第20届上海国际电影节颁奖典礼上，上海彩虹室内合唱团将登台亮相，唱响他们为电影节创作的主题曲《电影之城》。

上海是中国电影的发祥地，在这座城市生活的市民，一代又一代都有一个生活习惯：看电影。与祖辈、父辈和朋友、子女一样，彩虹室内合唱团的成员们，也喜欢看电影。而每年举办的上海国际电影节，毫无疑问成了大家过把电影瘾的期盼和等待。因此，当得知电影节今年举办20届时，虽然他们的创作表演非常忙碌，仍然为上海国际电影节写下了这首《电影之城》。这首主题曲，不仅以叙事方式唱起了市民的观影体验，他们还作为一位上海市民，用歌声祝愿有了国际电影节的百年电影之城，未来更美好！

1993年　初秋 　好热

Early autumn 1993 It was hot that day

他排着长长的队

He stood in a long line

鬓角淌着汗水

his hair dripping with sweat

他说这是第一次愉快的约会

He said it was his first date

手里拿着影票

He wished he could make her laugh hopefully

期待她会心一笑

with the film tickets in his hand

1997年　把孩子哄好

In 1997 after tucking their baby in

深夜的影院播放着泰坦尼克号

They watched the late night movie Titanic

就看那风吹梧桐小路

It began to breeze when they walked on the road covered by Chinese parasol leaves

他们手牵手说杰克也曾出演过成长的烦恼

He held her hand and said Jack also starred Growing Pains

电影到底是什么呀

What is film

电影到底是什么呢

What is film

也许它是我们漫长的生活中

Film might be

期待的仪式感

a ritual in their everyday life

这座城市遍布浪漫的故事

Romance happens in this metropolis

耐心地等待　从陌生到熟知

From strangers to acquaintance while waiting

长长的队伍

Though the line is long

短短的距离

the distance between them is narrowing

这是他们　相爱的方式

This is how they fall in love with each other

一部又一部　就这样度过了春夏

Film after film time passes by

青春的诗篇　写了一篇又一篇

Year by year youth fades

那么生活到底是什么呢

What is life

答案又有多少人知道

How many people know the answer

2007年　一家三口在浦江边

In 2007 a family of three was predicting

彼此争论最佳影片　是不是吴清源

whether The Go Master would win the Best Feature Film

争论不休 父子俩着急红了脸

The father and the son argued

她笑着让他们争辩

while the mother just let them smiling

空气中满是茉莉的味道

Sweet scent of jasmine filled the air

电影到底是什么呀

What is film

电影到底是什么呢

What is film

也许它是我们漫长的生活中

Film might be

期待的仪式感

a ritual in our everyday life

这座城市遍布浪漫的故事

Romance happens in this metropolis

耐心地等待从陌生到熟知

From strangers to acquaintance while waiting

长长的队伍

Though the line is long

短短的距离

the distance between them is narrowing

这是他们相爱的方式

This is how they fall in love with each other

这座大都市已经发生太多的故事

A lot of stories happened in this city

关于电影　关于生活

about film and about life

他们毕业　他们相爱

They graduate they fall in love

他们年轻的小孩

their young kids

还有他们　热爱的上海

and the city they love Shanghai

一部又一部　就这样度过了春夏

Film after film time passes by

青春的诗篇　写了一篇又一篇

Year by year youth fades

那么生活到底是什么呢

What is life

答案又有多少人知道

How many people know the answer

啦啦啦

La La La

2017年 初夏 好热

In 2017 it was hot in early summer

他们正慢慢变老 一切都挺好

They are getting old together

孩子推开门 手中握着今天的影票

Their child came in with the film tickets of today

下午阳光照进了窗台

Showering the afternoon sun

他们会心一笑

they smiled in the glory of the sun

上海国际电影节20岁

It is the 20th anniversary of Shanghai International Film Festival

生日快乐

Happy Birthday
